This trailer actually came out earlier in the week, and since its debut it has already circled the internet a few times. Unless something unpredictable happens, it appears that Disney might have a hit on their hands with Tron Legacy. Here’s hoping it is good enough to warrant another sequel 28 years from now!

In the most recent trailer for the film, the story is the focus as opposed to the visually amazing trailers or the Daft Punk focused videos. If you are hoping to remain totally spoiler free about the movie, even up to the basic premise, then avoid this trailer and look for the movie to release in 3D and on IMAX on December 17.

For the rest of you, the story follows Sam Flynn (Garrett Hedlund), son of Kevin Flynn (Jeff Bridges), 20 years after his father disappeared without a trace. Sam is lured into the digital world where he discovers that his father has been held captive by a computerized version of himself called CLU 2. With the help of the warrior Quorra (Olivia Wilde), father and son try to escape and the world that Kevin created.

3 underrated (HBO) Max movies you should watch this weekend (June 28-30)
A girl looks at a boy in House at the End of the Street.

June is surprisingly over, and with it, a great month for movies comes to a satisfactory close. You've probably watched Inside Out 2 or Bad Boys: Ride or Die or maybe even The Bikeriders. From blockbusters to indie fare, the theatrical movie business has been robust and healthy.

The same goes for streaming. Netflix had a big hit with Richard Linklater's Hit Man, while Amazon Prime Video recently premiered the latest bonkers season of The Boys. HBO and Max have been quieter, but their robust library speaks volumes to the streamer's high quality. The following three films are older, but are just as worth your time as new hits like House of the Dragon season 2.
The Skin I Live In (2011)

As we head toward the end of June, it's worth reflecting on how we want to spend the rest of summer. For some, that's going to mean enjoying nice weather or getting some time in at the beach. For others, it might mean escaping from the heat, at least for a while, to check out a great movie.

The best Netflix original series right now
Eric and Benedict Cumberbatch in Eric.

The era of Peak TV was also Peak Netflix, because the streamer seemingly had an endless supply of new original series. So far in 2024, that hasn't been the case. Whether we'll ever get the same level of content again seems unlikely for now. But even in a reduced capacity, Netflix still has a few new additions to its lineup of originals.

For the month of June, we're adding the '80s-set thriller, Eric, which stars Benedict Cumbebatch. Our other pick for the month is Supacell, which is Netflix's new British series that remixes some old superhero archetypes. That's not a very big selection for fans who always want something new, but this roundup of the best Netflix original series really does have all of the top options in one place for you. All you have to do is scroll down and make time to binge watch some shows.
